[hunteress]

A chap was out hunting last week with a lovely grey bought it from Melton Mowbray sales from a man with van just tied up outside cost hardly anything man even took a cheque makes me think it was stolen as its a realy nice horse just do's make you wonder I would hate for some one to pinch my boy and sell it at a market !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Sounds a bit dodgy.

Wonder if the ned has a freezemark/microchip?

It doesn't matter if it's horses or cars NEVER purchase from outside the auction. What you are buying is normally stolen or has problems with it.

It doesn't cost a fortune to put a horse or car into an auction & you have a certain amount of comeback if you find you have a problem. Buying outside you have no comeback at all. Very stupid way to purchase anything!

there's alot sold outside the melton sales, they're usually the dealers and diddies, not necessarily that it's stolen.

i've thought that too, when i've been before.

lol have you ever been to melton? I take it you havent, as hardly anything there is warranted. A few of the local dealers deal outside the ring, nothing to say it's stolen, just people too tight to pay the fees. What you see is what you get at these places. There were some gorgeous Cleveland bays got sold outside the ring the other week.
